Vanilla Themed Sampler 7 Inspiration

Next week, I will be featuring single oil soaps. The plain “vanilla” of soaps. So as I get ready for next week I wanted to share Vanilla flavors, fragrances and essential oils that would make a great Sampler 7. Will you come join me?

The first vanilla I wanted to cover is our Natural Vanilla Oil. This wonderful oil can be used as a fragrance or a flavor oil! How cool is that? (I love it when the oils in my cupboard can be used for lip balm, lotions, creams and more! Gotta love versatility!) This delicate and scrumptious oil will please any vanilla aficionado. A staple for any vanilla lovers cupboard. This is a natural oil and I that it reigns supreme in the lip balm world.

Next on our list today is our Vanilla Banilla Flavor Oil. If you are looking for a good, smooth, strong vanilla this flavor oil is tough to beat. This unsweetened vanilla is perfect with a sweetener or as a blender. Vanilla Banilla and Orange Essential make the perfect creamsicle. Or mix Vanilla Banilla Flavor Oil and Coffee Flavor Oil for your own personal latte. What blends would you make with the Vanilla Banilla Flavor Oil?

I love vanilla and when I want that strong vanilla scent without the soap turning dark brown, I turn to our Vanilla Cream Fragrance Oil. This fragrance oil is strong, warm and safe. It makes me think of a Vanilla Latte with a good dose of Bourbon Vanilla Extract. Mmn-mmn! Who can resist that in a soap?

Vanilla Hazelnut. I love this fragrance. It makes me think of freshly toasted hazelnuts with a strong vanilla scent. It reminds me of this time Andee made rather plain biscotti with hazelnuts and sweet vanilla icing. We all kept stopping for coffee breaks so we could all enjoy her wonderful biscotti. All I can say is there were hardly any crumbs by the end of the day which says something because when Andee bakes she always more-than-doubles the batch! Try this fragrance during your coffee break!

How do you make the intense and unforgiving scent of musk universally appealing? Blend it with vanilla of course! Our Vanilla Musk is a perfect balance of these two odors. However this is not a sweet vanilla. This is a vanilla bean scent that is slightly earthy. Wonderful with the addition of the musk! Try this fragrance oil today!

What is a girl to do when she wants vanilla and island delight? Why she uses Tahitian Vanilla of course! Tahitian Vanilla is a wonderful blend of island citrus, tropical fruit and smooth, buttery vanilla. A must have if you want a vacation in a bottle. I know the staff here keeps coming back for more. (I have to keep my bottle for the blog under lock and key!) It is everything you have read and more! The citrus notes are hard to forget.

Last on our list today is Sandalwood Vanilla. This complex fragrance is put together beautifully. A very woodsy, down to earth and masculine base with a strong but delicate vanilla. On more than one occasion, I have had to ask myself what that absolutely sinful fragrance is. I should know better. It is always Sandalwood Vanilla.

Put together your Vanilla Sampler 7 as we prepare for our single oil soap week! You will be so glad that you did! Enjoy!

I am really excited to hear about the single oil soap blogs coming up. Just this week I’ve been reading about a single oil soap swap that was done several years ago and the results really opened my eyes to how I create my recipes. I usually formulate based on a set of soap quality/INS numbers I want to achieve, so I’ve tossed that aside a bit and created some new recipes to try based on the single oil results, and now I can’t wait to see how your experiments turn out!
